The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 725 New Wizard, New Tactics
Among the five basic war zones under Richard, in addition to three old wizards, there are also two great wizards who are new wizards.

Among them, the eleventh and twelfth basic battle zones are all great wizards who are new wizards.

In this war that has been going on for hundreds of years, the number of great wizards from the pioneering period is decreasing, and the proportion of great wizards who are new wizards is gradually increasing among the great wizard group.

Of course, this is not because the great wizards who were born as new wizards are stronger. It is precisely because they are not strong enough that they can survive.

High-intensity battlefields require strong people. Compared with new wizards, old wizards are obviously more suitable for high-intensity battlefields. And these great wizards who are new wizards are often sent to command the marginal battlefield combat zone because of their lack of strength.

As time went by, the proportion of new wizards among great wizards became higher and higher.

But now, new wizards who have turned into great wizards have begun to appear in this high-intensity battlefield.

……

The communication was connected, and the voice of the Great Wizard Qingguang, the commander of the West 11th War Zone, came from the communication crystal ball.

"Commander, what are your instructions?"

The voice in the crystal ball was very weak. It seemed that the previous battle had caused serious injuries to the great wizard.

Richard noticed this and thought for a moment. He did not mention his new tactics directly, but asked with concern: "How are your injuries? Can you continue to fight? I still have some soul essence here."

"Thank you for your concern, my injury is not serious. I can just use the potion to heal it."

The voice of the Great Wizard Qingguang was slightly touching. It is always a happy thing to be cared for by others when you are injured.

"That's good. I saw in the information that you are a new wizard, right?"

"Yes, my lord."

The voice of the great wizard Qingguang was a little stiff. It seemed that his identity as a new wizard had brought him a lot of trouble.

"So what do you think of the battlefield commander?"

"Battlefield command? What do you mean?"

Richard organized his words and roughly recounted his tactics in the wild world.

"You mean that the power of battlefield command should be delegated to the legions, and the headquarters should only give general strategic goals. I think there is no ambiguity in my summary."

"Yes, that's what I mean. What do you think of this tactic?"

"...Commander, I don't quite understand. Why did you come to discuss this with me?"

Richard raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "Because you are a new wizard. New wizards all climbed up from the battlefield, and their understanding of war is more three-dimensional and in-depth."

The Great Wizard Qingguang was silent for a while. He was a little confused by the meaning of Richard's words.

He had read Richard's information and found that Richard was not a new wizard. But given the prejudice of old wizards against new wizards, this conversation should not have been initiated.

He was thinking, what on earth was Richard going to do?
"To win over? Or simply to find a guy with no background to experiment on."

The Great Wizard Qingguang thought a lot, but there was no doubt that this tactic was indeed good in his opinion.

The battle situation on the front line changes rapidly and opportunities for battle are often fleeting.

Delegating power to the front-line battlefield can greatly increase the legion's flexibility on the battlefield and reduce a lot of losses.

"...Commander, I think this tactic is feasible. At least it is worth a try."

"As long as you think it's feasible. I plan to conduct a tactical experiment in the West 11th War Zone. What do you think?"

Faced with Richard's request, many thoughts flashed through the mind of the great wizard Qingguang in an instant.

If something goes wrong in his war zone experiments, he will definitely not be able to escape, but at the same time, if the experiments are successful, he will definitely get the credit.

Moreover, agreement and refusal were not just a matter of merit, but also related to Richard's attitude towards him.

He is a great wizard who was born from a new wizard background. Even though his fighting ability is not weak among the great wizards who were born from a new wizard background, he is still a little weak compared to the monsters on the battlefield.

If Richard had paid more attention to him, perhaps he would still be able to survive the situation just now.

Thinking of this, the Great Wizard Qingguang already knew what his answer was.

"...I agree with your idea, sir. I also need to heal my wounds, so I can take a look at the results during this period of time."

In the secondary theater command center, a smile appeared on Richard's face.

"Very good. I am looking forward to the effectiveness of this tactic in this kind of battlefield."

……

After the command authority of the secondary theater command was determined, information from various basic theaters flowed into the command center like water.

After summarizing the statistics, Richard finally had an idea of ​​his five basic battle zones.

"The deployment of troops on the front battlefield is just different. A basic war zone is a world away from a marginal war zone."

Richard looked through the sorted troop statistics. Each of the five war zones under his command had a corps of nearly five million wizards. Among these corps, the ratio of elite corps to ordinary corps was one to four, which meant that each war zone had a corps of one million elite wizards.

This is more luxurious than the entire wild world.

In addition, these war zones have specialized anti-aircraft regiments, anti-ground corps, and a large number of clan armies.

If Richard in the Wild World could have the configuration of this war zone, he wouldn't need to use the cannibalization tactics and could just push forward and fight a decisive battle.

“So wealthy... huh?” Richard couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the information in his hand, but before he could finish his sigh, he saw the estimated report of Galaxy Mayfly?

Richard rubbed his eyes to make sure he had not miscounted.

The Galaxy Mayfly strength estimation report clearly stated that the number for one war zone was 2 billion.

“Isn’t this number written correctly?”

Richard looked at the staff officer beside him in astonishment. After seeing Cha's doubts, the staff officer nodded helplessly.

"Commander, there is no mistake. And this number will only increase, not decrease. The number of Galaxy Mayflies... is too huge."

After nearly a thousand years of war, the population of the Galaxy Mayflies has not decreased much. On the contrary, as the veins of the first batch of worlds conquered gradually recovered, the population of the Galaxy Mayflies even showed a trend of expansion.

The endless swarm of insects was like a tide, drowning everything that stood in their way.

"This... this is chronic suicide." Richard muttered to himself.

If things continue to develop in this way, can wizards really survive until the wizard boom at the end of the Dharma Ending Age?
When the staff officer heard Richard mumbling to himself, his face changed and he instantly cast a spell of amnesia on himself.

The Military Court has very strict control over speech. If this statement was made by someone below the Great Wizard, the Military Court could even directly incorporate the person into the Redemption Army.

Even if it was said by the Great Wizard, the Military Court has the ability to admonish the Great Wizard.

Any wizard who hears this sentence will be incorporated into the Redemption Army if he fails to pass the memory review of the Military Court.

The charge is preserving defeatist ideas.

Although this is the front line, in theory there is no secret commissioner from the Military Law Department.

But what if?
The art of forgetting is not a difficult sorcery, and it is always better to be conservative.

Seeing the staff officer's actions, Richard frowned slightly. He had heard a little about the Military Court's affairs. Although Richard understood that special measures should be taken in special times, at present, the behavior of the people in the Military Court was a bit excessive.

The staff officers of the secondary command were at least wizards with the Bronze Star Medal. The military judges were so self-aware that they were obviously well-known.

"Oh, I hope my experiment will be successful." Richard sighed in his heart.

Experiments on subspecies wizards have already begun, and teaching materials from the wizarding world have been placed in the hands of these subspecies wizards.

If his original idea could succeed, then it would not be a problem for the wizard to hold the front line.

A world with world guardians and a world without world guardians are two completely different battlefields.

The latter is just like now, neither side has a world guardian, and it all depends on hard power.

But the former is different.

The World Guardian can do a lot of things by communicating with the origin of the world, and these are not just the differences between individual combat powers.

……

With the cooperation of the great wizard Qingguang, the new tactics were soon implemented in the West 11th War Zone.

Although the wizards were on the defensive overall, there was still a considerable tug-of-war between the wizards and the Galaxy Mayflies in some local areas.

The target of the two sides' competition is often one or two natural geomagnetic nodes.

For wizards, natural venation nodes are not only the natural power source for large magic arrays, but also a way to cut off the logistics of galactic mayflies.

The high density of Galaxy Mayflies makes their energy requirements soar. In marginal battlefields, Galaxy Mayflies can break away from the energy mother nest to fight, but in this kind of main battlefield, the energy mother nest is an indispensable strategic weapon for Galaxy Mayflies.

Otherwise, a huge number of insects will starve to death due to insufficient energy flow.

In this case, the geocentric nodes that can "charge" the mother nest are naturally important resource points.

The competition between the two sides for the geocentric nodes naturally became a testing ground for new tactics.

"Oh? The higher-ups actually delegated the power of command?"

The corps commander was slightly stunned when he saw the order from the theater command.

"The command authority has been decentralized?" Upon hearing this, the legion commander's deputy walked up to the legion commander, a hint of surprise flashing across his face.

"The big shots above finally listened to our opinions?"

The legion leader shook his head: "No, I feel this must be the decision of some important person. The Great Wizard Qingguang would not do such a risky thing."

For a great wizard who started out as a new wizard, it would be very risky to rashly use new tactics.

Because new wizards have no connections, even if new tactics have achieved results, they can easily be suppressed. If the results are impressive enough, it is not impossible for others to trip them up on the battlefield.

There is no problem in giving as much honor to the dead as possible.

And if there are no results, then suppression is a natural consequence.

"No matter what, decentralization of command is definitely a good thing."

The deputy commander of the legion had a smile on his face, but the light in his eyes was extremely sharp.

There is no legion that does not desire free command. In the past, rigid and slow command always made them miss opportunities to fight.

Now it's finally time for them to show their abilities.
